SingularityU South Africa is upon us once again and has announced its plans to host the SingularityU Exponential Finance Summit online in 2021. Set to take place from 28 – 30 July 2021, the summit aims to build and grow an African investment innovation ecosystem by connecting Mzansi and Africa’s top entrepreneurs and innovative businesses with global venture capitalists, institutional funds, private investors and global thought leaders. Something which is desperately needed at the moment.
Generally, SingularityU is known for its prowess in corporate education by showcasing bleeding edge speakers, ground breaking topics and thought provoking insights at its summits and programmes. This year’s Exponential Finance online summit responds to President Ramaphosa’s recent appeal at the South Africa Investment Conference for more investments into the country, by focusing on how to bring investment into South Africa and Africa so as to create an investment ecosystem in which to harness Africa’s true potential.
The diverse range of topics that will be addressed at this year’s summit will include Leadership and Investment, Exponential Technology, Crypto/Blockchain, Future of Banking, Scaling, ESG, 5G, Cybersecurity, Social Impact, Inclusive Growth, NFT’s (nonfungible tokens), Gaming and DEFI (decentralized finance).
While the Covid-19 pandemic has placed many industries under strain, it has also triggered new opportunities for innovation and growth, which will be explored at this online summit. A host of local and international speakers will take to the stage to present the latest insights that will help propel exponential growth.
“We understand that capital is oxygen for any business and breathes life, sustainability and growth. This is why it is so important for us to develop and build an investment innovation ecosystem in South Africa. In this way we can improve the quality of life for all South Africans through a booming, abundant economy” said Mic Mann, Co-CEO of SingularityU South Africa.
“As we continue SingularityU’s journey to future proof Africa, it is essential to harness the expertise that is available in our network to cultivate an economy that is advantageous for investors. The second annual SingularityU Exponential Finance Summit Online will empower entrepreneurs, business leaders and titans of industry alike with the newest insights regarding ground-breaking technologies and innovations that are available to take the continent forward” added Shayne Mann, Co-CEO of SingularityU South Africa.
The SingularityU Exponential Finance Summit 2021 will be hosted in collaboration Deloitte and MTN. To join the SingularityU community of changemakers, or to book, check here.
